From cell extracts of the archaebacterium Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum 11 putative precursors of the pseudomurein were isolated and characterized. On the basis of the isolated intermediates, a biosynthetic pathway of the pseudomurein is proposed. Compared to the eubacterial murein the biosynthetic stages follow different pathways as indicated by the occurrence of a nucleotide-activated disaccharide and nucleotide-activated peptides.
从嗜热自养甲烷杆菌的细胞提取物中分离并鉴定出11种假定的假肽聚糖前体。基于分离出的中间体,提出了假肽聚糖的生物合成途径。与真细菌的肽聚糖相比,生物合成阶段遵循不同的途径,这由核苷酸活化二糖和核苷酸活化肽的出现所表明。
